Meet Jenny Leggett Harn RYT 200!

Hi, I’m Jenny Harn, a newly Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance. I’m overjoyed to be joining the River Thistle Spa family. I was lucky to find a yoga practice in the early 2000s and it has remained a part of my life ever since. I have practiced in many different places and spaces, with many different teachers and friends. One thing is for certain, when I dedicate time to myself on my mat it feels like home and life is better. When I was a full time classroom teacher I learned to make it a part of our classroom routines. I found great joy informally leading weekly yoga clubs and building yoga communities with my students and teachers. I’ve invited friends on my yoga journey all along the way from workshops to sound baths and retreats. Always a student and inviting friends to join me. Now I’m even luckier to have found the opportunity to complete my 200hr yoga teacher training here in Batesville at Yoga7 in 2025. I’m extremely grateful for the experience and thrilled to formally be a 200hr registered yoga teacher. I am so ready to offer a SAFE, supportive environment where anybody can practice yoga. Start your journey. Invite others. My aim is to lead a fun Level 1 class that focuses on slow, mindful movement and breath awareness. I truly believe in the “your mat, your practice” philosophy and I'm passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental space for others. Yoga isn’t about being the most flexible person in the room, it's about dedicating time to a practice that allows you to build strength, clarity and a sense of belonging. I am honored to have you join me on the mat to unite body, mind and spirit in community.

Jenny's first class is Level 1 Yoga on Wednesday the 7th at 6pm in the Batesville Area Arts Council gallery.

Benefits of a Prenatal Massage:

🩷 Loosening tight muscles and easing tension in the back, reducing pain and discomfort. As your body changes and your baby grows, you may experience aches and pains like back pain which is a common complaint among pregnant women, as the extra weight and pressure on the spine can cause strain and tension.

🩵 Promoting relaxation and improving your mood, which can have a positive impact on both you and your baby. Pregnancy can be a stressful time, and it's important to take care of your mental and emotional health as well as your physical health.

💛 Reduces swelling, improves circulation, and promotes healthy blood flow throughout the body As your body changes, you may experience swelling in your feet and ankles, which can be uncomnfortable and even painful. Swelling is a common problem during pregnancy which can be caused by a variety of factors, including hormonal changes and the pressure of the growing baby on the circulatory system.

💜 Improving sleep quality. Many pregnant women experience difficultly sleeping, due to a variety of factors such as hormonal changes, physical discomfort, and stress. Massage therapy can help to promote relaxation and reduce stress, allowing women to get a better night's sleep.

We tried something new. 😍

This week we had a girls day with 3 ladies. We had a blast stretching ourselves to see if we could accommodate 3 massages and 3 facials in the couples room. Spoiler!! We not only did but we loved every minute of it! Thank you to clients who not only tell us their dream spa day, but trusting us to deliver! 🥰

Wash away the holiday stress with a Sound Bath, January 17th at 5:30 with Elsa Karma. Online booking available here: https://booking.mangomint.com/riverthistlespa?serviceId=176

A sound bath is a meditative experience where you relax, lying down, while immersed in deep, resonant sounds from instruments like singing bowls, gongs, and chimes, designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and encourage a meditative state by washing the body in vibrations, similar to being gently soaked in sound. These sessions aim to shift your brain from "fight-or-flight" to "rest-and-digest" mode, potentially lowering heart rate and blood pressure, and offering mental clarity and spiritual well-being through focused listening.
